Right-to-Left Languages

Post by nirnir »

Hi,
Before buying your sdk I would like to know if you solved already that problem .
I do type in RTL alignment but the characters are displayed on a wrong position .

Regards
Nir

Hello Nir,

We are working on providing Right-to-Left and Top-to-Bottom support in our products but it would happen in the next major release I am afraid.
So for the moment there is no fix yet.

Best,
Stefan

How long does it take to support that simple feature .
I see that people asked that long time ago .
I can't use the product without that , Can you give me a time table ?

Thanks

It takes as long as it takes and respectfully - it is NOT a simple feature ...

We cannot be specific at this time about release dates - we hope to provide more info in the autumn as to the expected release.

If you cannot use the product and are in anyway dissatisfied - we would not wish you to consider your money as taken under false pretences, please feel free to request a refund and provided you can confirm that you have not used etc - we will naturally do so.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

Best regards

In our company we are using three languages (arabic, english and french) for filling those trilangue pdf forms.

with your great tool pdf x-change viewer, english and french (even special characters) are handled correctly, but arabic words are reversed (left to right while it should be right to left)

I've read the precedant posts, we are now 2011, so can you tell us about, when will we see a complete great pdf x-change viewer that handles all sorts of languages.


thank you and good luck to you all!

LibreOffice + Oracle PDF import extension handles both LTR and RTL languages quite well! have a look at their source code, it may be helpfull

Hi again ammine007,

same answer as in your other thread: https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/ ... =35&t=7821
we are expecting to have a 'road map' for V3 in place within the next 7 days where we can make a commitment to the general list of features for V3.

More info on delivery dates and features will also be published in the next 7 days.
Best regards
